Double chance : Twente or draw

Twente come into this match at home in excellent form, having won four of their last five games, with their only recent loss coming away from home. They are playing with a lot of confidence, while NEC Nijmegen have been a bit more inconsistent, with two wins, two draws, and a loss in their last five. Looking at recent meetings between these sides, goals have been very common - their last two encounters both ended with six goals total (a high-scoring 3-3 draw and a 3-2 win for NEC), and most of their recent matches have seen both teams scoring freely.

Twente will feel confident playing at their own stadium given their strong recent results, but NEC have proven they can score goals away from home and have had the edge in some previous meetings. This looks like a very close, open contest where both sides are capable of scoring, and a draw would be a fair outcome based on how these teams have been playing and their recent history against each other.
